Save the Black Rooster Pub!

This place has been a mainstay of my social life since moving to DC 5 years ago, and now it is also my husband's livelihood as well. But the Rooster is in serious danger is we don't do something! The Peace Corps - which occupies the same building - has staged a hostile takeover of the Rooster's space, forcing the Black Rooster to close its doors by Nov 3. Read the whole story @ http://tinyurl.com/yha7k72. First, the Washington Post needs to write an article about this! Second, fans of the Black Rooster need to unite! Sign the petition (http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/BlackRoosterPub/index.html), spread the word on Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, every way you can think of! Write the Peace Corps! Please help fight this travesty.

The Black Rooster is great!

The Black Rooster is a fantastic bar. It's got great food and very good drinks. The selection of spirits and beer is impressive. Try the ribs (fantastic and cheap) or the cheeseburgers (half price on Tuesdays). The staff at the Rooster is also really nice, always friendly and funny. It's the kind of bar that you can walk in by yourself and have a great conversation with people you don't even know. The regulars are great people, and will make you feel welcome there. Give the Rooster a shot, you will not be disappointed.
